Viega 95545 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does P x FTG mean on the Viega MegaPress 95545 45-degree elbow?
P x FTG means one end is a press socket and the other is a fitting (street) end. The press end slips over 2-1/2 inch pipe and gets crimped; the FTG end is sized to slip INTO the press socket of another 2-1/2 inch MegaPress fitting. That's what makes it a street elbow: you get a 45-degree turn without adding a short nipple between two fittings.
2) What is Smart Connect on a Viega MegaPress fitting and why does it matter on install?
Smart Connect is a feature built into the press socket that lets an unpressed joint leak during pressure testing, so a connection you skipped shows itself before the system goes into service. On a 2-1/2 inch line with a lot of joints, that's the difference between finding the miss at test and finding it in the ceiling later.
3) Can I use the Viega 95545 to offset around an obstruction in a 2-1/2 inch line?
That's exactly the case for it. Two 45-degree elbows make a standard offset, and because this one has a street (FTG) end, it presses straight into another MegaPress socket or accepts pipe on the press side, cutting out one coupling per turn. Both ends are 2-1/2 inch, so there's no size change through the offset.
4) Will a 45-degree elbow work where I need a 90, or should I use two 45s?
A single 45 turns the line half as sharply as a 90 and is the usual choice for offsets and easy direction changes with less turbulence. If you need a full right angle, use a 90 rather than stacking two 45s, since each of these adds a joint and roughly 7.689 inches of fitting length to the run.
